Register of the Treasury. will speak in the
afternoon at 8 p. m. The Generals son
was ordained priest at the same time
with Father Brady, rector of st. Angus
tines Church. Rev. Father Brady's
health has not been good for some time
past, and he will go away about the begin
ming of Juy on a recreation which will
last during the balance of the heated
term.
The thirty-frst annual commencement
of Seton Hall College, South Orange, will
take place on Wednesday, June 15, at p.
M. on the G ollege Campus, if the weather
is favorable, and If not, in Alumni Hall,
which was recently built by the Seton
Hall Alumni Association. The Association
will hold a meeting at D. m. on the same
day. The college was founded in 1856 by
Rev. B. J. McQuade, now Bishop OF Roch-
ester, N. Y, under the direction and
approval of the first Bishop of the
Diocese of Newark, Right Rev. James
Roosevelt Bayley. The college was at FIRST
located near where the present st. Eliza
beth's Academy is situated at Convent
Station, near Madison, N. j., but was re-
moved in 1860 to South Orange. Quite a
number of the clergy of the diocese were
educated at Seton Hall.
On Thursday, June 80, the members of
st. Bridgets parish will hold picnic on
the grounds at the corner of Montgomery
and Monmouth streets. Large tents will
be spread, and everything done to make
the occasion pleasant and attractive. Be-
sides the regular orchestra there will be
other varieties of music SO as to please
everybody. There will be the Irish and
Scotch bagpipes, the fiddle-not the violin,
but the genuine '.iddle," and above all,
the "Harp of Old Erin" The picnic
promises to be more than usually enjoy
able affair, and one of the pleasantest
things about it is that after the merry
makers have tired themselves out in dane
ing and other diversions, they will not be
obliged to travel thirty or forty miles to
reach their homes, for they are at home the
whole time. The picnic viii begin at 2 p.
M, and will close before dark. AS the
proceeds are for the benefit of the new
church, there will no doubt be very large
crowd.

Delightful Entertainment by Miss Ja-

Delightful Entertainment by Miss ia.
cobs' Glass ON Friday.
1t was partly the youth. and partly the
admirable selection he had been chosen to
recite, and partly not by any means the
Smallest part either-his skill that made
eight-year old Wallie Saokett the central
figure at the exhibition given by Miss NJ
L. Jacobs's eIocution class 10 Library Hall,
last Friday evening His description of
Jimmie tending the baby kept the large
audience that gathered at the hall in roars
of laughter from the beginning to the end,
and brought salvo of applause at the end
that made an encore. He had not been as
well prepared for the recitation he gave as
an encore, and it was not excellent judg-
ment to allow him to responu. Mss
Eunice Sackett recited Saxes Pyramis and
Ihisbe with grace and skill that won her
praise on all sides, and with q clearness of
enunciation that did not distinguish all the
other Rotations. The whole entertain
ment was prepared with excellent taste and
Judgment, and all the elocutionists showed
special points of excellence. Mrs. Grins-
lade was the most finished elocutionist who
appeared on the boards, not excepting
Miss Jacobs herself, and she is perfect
actress as we'll. Miss Marian @. Buffers
tart discourse, as lady of color, on the
apple was an admirable thing both in text
and delivery. Little Miss Gertie Bust field
could not have been excelled in her spirit
ed rendition of 'sThe Freckle-faced Girl"
whom the missionary lady described as a
holy terror, and Annie Schneider recited
the merry story of the s'Inventor's Wife"
with admirable correctness. Miss Elicka
Jones led off the Rotations with ssThe
Ride of Jennie McNeal," and it was good
story well told. Miss Annie Auryanson' s
GERRY" showed her to be a de-
claimer of unusual promise. Her
acting was superb: but her pronunciation
was not always distinct and clear. Miss
Maggie Banks won the favor of the audi
ence with her recitation of "The Wedding
Fee," and well-arranged tableaux illus
trated the story. At the end Miss Jacobs
herself read the famine story from Hiawa-
tina while it was acted in pantomine by a
party of ladies and gentlemen in character
costumes. Mrs. G inslade was the dying
Minnehana: Percy Williamson was Hiwa-
tina; Lizzie Suter was Old Nokomis; May
Wskeman was a perfect impersonation of
the haunting demon of famine: Miss Lu-
ella Benson's makeup as the haunting de-
mon of fever, was equally good. Miss
Edith Williamson was the Angel of Death.
The recitations were interspersed with mu-
SIC, and during the evening young Albert
A. Fowler sang "They Can't do it You
Know, in good voice: Mr.. Fl. s. Beach
sang ''Tidings of Comfort and JOY; Miss
Bessie Swan played "Recollections OF
Home, an arrangement by Mills, and
Miss Maggie Rlnks sang the Lullaby from
"Ermi ME. The whole programe afforded
such an evening of amusement as an a1di-
ence i Bergen Hall seldom sees. Some
of the young people stayed after it was
over to dance.

A communication in another column calls atten-
ton to the neglected condition of the reservations
south OF the Avenue, and especially OF the Smith
sOntan reservation. The tracks along 9th street
and ill-kept roads and lawns, doubtless, prevent
the spark from being especially attractive or
creditable at present. But the series OF reserva-
tons connecting Capitol and White House should
be, and doubtless viii be, improved as well as
protected until the Executive avenue" Of the
future shall conduct the visitor through q land
scape OF beauty from one 10 the other OF the two
most famous buildings OF the new world. Con-
gress has recently protected Monument park from
all sorts OF uses and abuses. and has shown q like
friendly disposition towards the other reserva-
tons 1t has forbidden paDple TO go there for
various purposes, thus assuming that there will
be some temptation or attraction to draw people
there, and this assumption viii doubtless be made
good No consistent Congress Will content itself
with forbidding people 10 do something that they
could not be induced to do If there were no pro-
hibiti0n- II will at least provide something upon
which its prohibition may operate. Much money
can probably be expended upon this grand series
OF parks They need development and adornment
more, and Will show better results from proper
expenditure than the tiny reservations In the
northwestern section Of the city, upon which so
much public-improyement energy is exhausted

The refusal OF the Limerick municipal council to
celebrate the queens jubilee because the queen
has visited Ireland only twice during her long
reign and has never assisted Irish charities does
not seem wholly unreasonable in view OF the fact
that Scotland, scarcely more accessible than Ire
land TO the neighbOrhoOd OF London, and having
no stronger claim upon the good viii OF the crown
IS the chosen summer home OF Victoria. 1t is an
historic fact that, from the day Of Henry WILL,
who was viceroy OF Ireland for a time before as
cending the throne no member OF the British royal
family set foot in Ireland for nearly centuries
and then another lapse OF one hundred and thirty
three years occurred George Nv. went over and
was received with . magnificent ovation Vic
tora, wneD she went, had a like reception: but for
quarter OF a century she has not repeated her
visit, though going three times year across the
Scottish border IL Is not wonderful that the Irish
people, who by nature are given to strong per-
sonal attachments, should feel jealous OF this
manifestation Of Partially. The day has probably
passed when their feelings could be easily sOothed
and this excellent opportunity for increasing the
glory OF her Own reign and improving the pros
poets OF her pOsteriy on the throne the queen has
deliberately thrown away.

The action OF the Senate in making suitable ap-
preparation FOR the expenses OF receiving and en-
PERTAINING the delegates 10 the International Medi
cal Congress which viii meet in Washington in
September next, is gratifying evidence that ap-
probation of the Arts and sciences does not grow
DIM even amid the rumOrs Of war. The forthcom-
Ing meeting is the ninth OF the series, the last
having been at Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1854.
These meetings have always stimulated the pro-
duction of scientific papers OF the highest value,
as a consequence OF the friendly rivalry OF men
standing highest in medical science throughout
the world on the secretary Generals register are

In Eurose these congresses have been opened In

London, which was Opened by the Prince of Wales
acting for the Queen. 1t is expected that PreSi-
dent Cleveland who has kindly consented TO be a
patron will open the exercises. A gathering SO
eminently humanitarian in its character, and so
scientific In its methods, should receive at the
hands OF the Republic every attention and kindly
encouragement.
